Eagle Premier Starter

[n_tensetuning]

Ron....thank you thank you

That's exactly what I needed and is the perfect picture for anyone doing this starter swap in the future.

Car started instantly wired up like this.

Also, decided to eliminate the main battery wire to the starter and ran it to the jumper post on pontoon and then just have the wire from jumper post down to starter along with little bundle of Brown wires.... helped clean up the wiring and move the wiring more away from starter.

Thanks again for posting the pic.
Super helpful and helps eliminate much confusion from earlier posts.

Bringing this old thread back from the dead because it was very helpful. I currently have no exhaust system installed because I'm in the middle of a frame-out restoration. My Paris Rhone starter is in good shape and has been rebuilt once, and has a new-ish starter solenoid. The problem with that starter, though, is you can't get it out of the engine if you have headers installed. So, I decided now is the time to do it.

These starters are getting hard to find now.

Autozone - no longer available
Advance Auto - photo in the only listing for a starter for a 1991 Premier V6 doesn't look like the correct starter and is not available in stores anyway
O'Reilly - one listing, shows it as ineligible for pick up in store or ship to home. says "call store to order"... I tried to do so and they said they looked it up and it's not available!

Rock Auto - had ONE Remy starter left, I bought it. There are still some Delco starters for double price.

Get one now while you still can!

That's odd...I just tried and it will send me one for $91.99 with free shipping, $40 core.

This one here? I called the store, they looked up the number, and they said it's not available for them to order for me and they have to put in a "Customer Support" ticket to try to find one. He also searched by application (1990/1991 Eagle Premier 3.0L V6) and he agreed that's the only one they show.

Can you tell me what car you looked up to find that starter? Earlier in this thread it was said 1990 Eagle Premier which is what I have been searching for. When I look up that part # in your shopping cart, the O'Reilly website says it does not fit a 1990 Premier.

Just to clarify you CAN remove the Paris Rhone starter with headers present, I have the DMC stage 1 exhaust and did it quite easily) you have to take the solenoid out and take the starter apart while its up there and pull it out in pieces but it can be done. I do not think its very possible to install a Paris Rhone starter without removing the exhaust headers. It is quite easy to put the eagle starter in there with headers though.

Thanks! I don't know what my problem was but I cancelled the Rock Auto starter and ordered this one instead.
